After reading a discussion on DistroWatch asking if users were happy with their current distribution, I noticed a common thread of those who have had similar experiences as myself with juggling various Linux distributions. Like myself, they feel many Linux distributions are great, but no one quite feels like home. None of them quite fit the bill and they may even begin to think that every OS sucks.

I really want to try this distro. From what I understand, the pacman tool can be used to install either binaries or build from source. I just wonder if there is some way to autmatically set the CFLAGS & CXXFLAGS as in Gentoo. If so, I will most definitely be taking this one out for a spin.
